Kick of 2012 with some soul from The Mahaffey Theater's New Year's Disco Eve featuring 70's music sensations Gloria Gaynor, Sister Sledge and Maxine Nightingale.

Jam out to "I Will Survive" and "We Are Family" on Saturday, December 31 as doors open at 8 p.m. for a night of dancing, hit sing-alongs, champagne toasts and fireworks outside on the downtown waterfront.

Headlining the NYE bash is "I Will Survive" songstress Gloria Gaynor. At just 19, Gloria signed her first record contract and began a career of hit after hit of soulful chart-toppers. Gloria's "Never Can Say Good-Bye" bowed at #1 on the charts becoming the first Dance Song to reach the coveted #1 spot. Today, Gloria keeps setting the soul standard. Continuing to top charts, Gloria Gaynor was the first to record an album exclusively for clubs, and the first to do a mega-extended dance medley party mix, releasing 12 dance singles that are now high-end collectors items. Gaynor’s ever-popular inspiring #1 international hit, “I Will Survive,” will be one of the 25 recordings honored at the upcoming 54th Grammy Awards Ceremony in February 2012.

Next to rock the stage is the Philadelphia quartet Sister Sledge. With their smash 1985 hit "Frankie" they achieved international popularity. Many of there most popular hits, including "We Are Family," have been re-released several times keeping their sound timeless and up-to-date. "We Are Family" is regarded as one of the most popular songs of all time, winning a Grammy in 1970 for Record of the Year and over 250 million internet downloads to date. Voted by VH1 as the most successful girl groups of their time, Sister Sledge has won over 100 awards in the music industry worldwide and no signs of stopping now.

Maxine Nightingale's "Right Back Where We Started From" skyrocketed to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in May 1976 and now it's coming to you. With years of producing soul and jazz hit after hit including soul sensation "Lead Me On," Maxine Nightingale will rock the house this NYE and ring in the new year with some soul style!
